Our little Football Player

Will got a new football uniform Monday and I really didn't want to buy it since he already had an Atlanta Falcons' one at home that his Papa bought him. But, I do not think I would have been able to leave the mall without it. I think he's already decided he's an Auburn fan, there was no talking him into wanting the Alabama one. I guess Jared won!! I do have to admit he does look really cute in it, even though I don't really like the colors. We could not get home fast enough, as soon as we walked in the door he was stripping off his clothes. He has hardly had it off since. Needless to say this is going to be his Halloween costume. At first he wanted to be Spiderman, then he discovered football and can I say, he's a bit obsessed with it. Tomorrow they get to wear their Halloween costumes to school, so he's very excited. I'm just worried he's going to want to play football and try to tackle all of the other kids. I think we need to have a talk with him tonight about it.

I have the shoulder pads on backwards I think...

"Mr. Tough Guy"

Will and Caroline had there first bath together last night. It was the first bath she really enjoyed, she sat in the tub for about 10 minutes. Usually it's a real quick bath while she's screaming. I think she liked watching Will splash around!!

Guys night out...

Will and I were left alone for an "all boys" weekend... We decided to go and enjoy the hockey season opener between the Columbus Cottonmouths and the Huntsville Havoc...
It was both mine and Will's first experience at hockey. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Even though our home team took a 2-6 lose, we really got into the hard hitting action. Will is ,of course, now wanting to play hockey...
I think we may have an avid athlete on our hands.

Growing, Growing, Growing

Caroline had her 2 month check-up yesterday and is getting soooo big. She weighed 11 lbs, 12 oz and 23 1/2 in long!! She got five shots in her little legs, and I think the people in the waiting room could hear her screaming. I can't believe she is already two months old and changing everyday. She is now "cooing" and smiling all of the time. Especially at Will, he can just look at her and she will start smiling. No more of the screaming afternoons where I want to pull my hair out. Although, it hasn't completely stopped, but just not everyday. She had one of those nights last night, I think she was hurting a little bit from her shots. She has been sleeping through the night for a few weeks now which is wonderful, she sleeps better than Will most of the time. Last night she went to sleep at 9:15 and is still asleep right now as I am writing this. But, Mr. Will had me up at 6:00 this morning and also woke up once during the night. Here are a couple of pictures to see how much she has already changed. She has lost most of what little bit of hair she had, lost the sideburns too (thank goodness)!!


Two weeks old.....

Pirates and Pumpkin Patch

Last week Will had a busy week at school. Wednesday they had a Pirate's and Princess Pizza Party. Of course I waited till last minute to get him something to wear, so a quick run to Target Tuesday night I found a hat, patch, and sword that he loved. They got to make their on personal pizza for lunch. Thursday we went on a field trip to Marengo Farms where we went on a hayride, saw farm animals, and picked out a pumpkin for the class. Of course Will had to choose which pumpkin they were taking back to school. He has a great teacher and would really like to go everyday, but I only signed him up for 3 days and now he would have to change classrooms to go 5 days. I just don't think I want him to change teachers since he likes her so much and all of his little friends.




We went to Dothan this past weekend for Addison's 1st Birthday Party. It was great seeing everyone and all of the children. It is crazy to think that we are all mommies now or almost!! Will was not in the picture because he had already left to go to the Troy game with my parents, he loves football.






Happy Birthday Addison!!!!

I'm going to try this.....

Okay...so, I've decided to start a blog page. I don't know how long it will last, but I'm going to try to keep doing it (at least for grandparents). I'm already getting frustrated with it. I can't figure out how to shrink the pictures so they will be smaller or how to do a slide show or put music on there. Need some suggestions from some of you who already have a blog page!!!

Anyway, for those of you I haven't talked to in a while....we are living in Columbus, Ga. Will is now 3 1/2 and a very active little boy. When I first thought about doing this, I thought what would I write about, but with him there is always something funny he has done. He has been a very good big brother so far, he loves "Baby Caroline". She is 2 months old today!! Will thought we should make her a cake for her 2 month B-day---which I wouldn't mind one either! She has been a pretty good baby so far, with a few frustrating times every now and then. Just getting use to having two is the hard part. Thank goodness for Will's Mother's Day Out (Preschool), or I don't know what I would do. Okay...I think I just figured out how to add pictures...and a video. This is some of what he has learned at school....he also came home the other day and told us all the months of the year and in order!!







Here are a few pictures of our lazy weekend, we have been going out of town so much it was nice to be home for a change. Plus, Will was sick---that's why we got to be lazy.






Happy Fall and Halloween everyone.....I love this time of year!!
